Week 5 Term 2 – 21 May 2015 STAFF CHANGES Unfortunately, Julie Wright (Year 2/3W’s teacher) has taken 3 weeks leave for family reasons. We are very fortunate to have Mrs Henna, a lovely new teacher to our area who will teach the 2/3s for 2 weeks, following by Mrs Martin before Mrs Wright returns, hopefully on the 15th of June. Also, Mr Mottershead (2MM) will be on long service leave for Term 3 with Mr Rann here for this time. NRL DEVELOPMENT DAY Yesterday I had the pleasure of watching our students play in the NRL Development Cup at Albert Park. The players had a great day and their coach Mr Bakhash was very proud of their efforts. We were a much smaller side than many of the other schools, who have multiple classes of Year 6s to choose from, but the team were great sports and tried their best. Congratulations to Dylan (Year 6) who was named Best and Fairest for Chatsworth. It was also great to see some girls from our school getting involved with the boys. Kayla (Year 6) was even our top try scorer with 3 tries for the day! SCHOOL PHOTOS A big reminder that SCHOOL PHOTOS ARE TOMORROW!

TUCKSHOP NEWS Hello everybody, To start with I would like to thank Julie, Donna, Zoe, Keesha and Debbie and thank you to the people who helped out with the limbo at the disco. I'm sorry to say there was a little girl who grazed her face at the disco because of the lights going on & of, I really hope she is alright. Apart from that, the kids behaved really well. We ended up raising $524, thank you. Walk Safely to School Day — 22 May This Friday students are encouraged to take part in Walk Safely to School Day. Walking or taking public transport to school promotes a healthy lifestyle and responsible behavior around our streets, while also reducing traffic around our school. It would be great to see parents joining in as well. P & C NEWS A HUGE thank you to the Smythe family for their help with the Saunders Family Working Bee. We got heaps done between 3 families and their home looks great! Loueen & I got to use the commercial kitchen at "The Decks on Mary" to fill their freezer with the donations.
